about

Written in November 2012, this collection of songs represents the work started in the NaSoAlMo challenge. Subsquent editing has taken more time than the actual writing of the tracks (always the way). However at last they are released, and rather than over polish, I have endeavoured to keep some of the innocence of a project undertaken in the spirit of creating more, polishing less, resulting tracks that have a character that is often innocent and unaffected.

If you knew that you could have it all
You’d have it all and then you’d have some more
And seeing’s what makes it believable
Believe in this - it‘s at the very core.

CHORUS
It’s love, love, love, love, love.
Love love love love love..

CODA
There will never be a time like this..
Another time like this will never be
I’m only saying that you take your bliss.
Oh take your bliss and now let go of me..

Track Name: A Message from your Angel

VERSE 1 The time is right: it's now or never.
Spare the cliches and get on with it or ever
More be regretting - the past..
Make it last..

VERSE 2 Can't be so hard. ..you gotta sell it
To yourself - rebel: it
Can't be impossible to tell yourself
That this time, not gonna set yourself up
To fail...

VERSE 3 Ooooh yes you can do it.
Yes we'll get through it..
I'm your angel speaking..
And I'm telling you
I'm always here.
Always near
Hold out your hand -
Is there something you can feel?

VERSE 4 If I could only talk I'd say to you
If I could make myself seen I'd pray to you
Hear me, see me... I'm behind this pane of glass
Sense me with your big heart..

Just start
Believing...
Believing..

CODA

It’s a message from Angel - from your Angel’s heart
She says it’s time for you to make a start
The time is right it’s up to you
You gotta know she’ll see you through..

It’s a message from Angel - from your Angel’s heart
She says it’s time for you to make a start
The time is right it’s up to you
You gotta know she’ll see you through.. (repeat and fade)

Track Name: Wherever I go Footsteps Follow

Lyrics in this version are a selection of vaguely creepy suggestions: Below is included a lyric written - Walking down the outside path
Wondering if this will last
Burning candles in the rain
Waiting till they light again

Never had much faith in quacks
What they say just isn't facts
Pass the salt why don't you love
Praying for the changes from above

Nearing armageddon so you say
Could there ever be another way
Not surprising some would think
Heading up the river bound to sink..

Looking to call you up with a refrain
Just that its receded once again
Where's the fun in saying we are doomed?
Never mind that we have succumbed

Who is watching?
Who is watching me?

Leave it out, you left this much too late to stop
Bring us from the edge we'll cop the lot
Brothers who are guiltless pay the price
They don't seem to find our petty smiles somewhat nice..

What is this moment going to feel?
When we are holding hands for real
None of us can make it go away
All that we can do is start to pray..

Tell me that you haven't thought of this..
And I will be delighted that you've missed
The darkest thoughts that refuge in my brain
Hoping never to have to watch you feel this pain..
